Gaelic Storm, one of the most exciting musical groups to perform in the Fox Cities, is making another special appearance at the University of Wisconsin-Fox Valley on Tuesday, March 4, at 7:00 p.m. in the campus’ Fine Arts Theatre. The performance is sponsored by the UWFox Campus Activities Board and is free and open to the public with a limited number of seats available through a ticket distribution at the campus.

“Gaelic Storm” has played at Milwaukee’s Irish-Fest, the Celtic-Fest in Chicago, the Dublin, Ohio Irish Festival, the Pittsburgh Irish Festival, and the Festival Interceltique in Lorient, France, and has performed previously at UWFox.

Gaelic Storm achieved international notoriety through their appearance in the blockbuster film, “Titanic,” portraying the party band in the steerage scene.

The group has released six albums, with the most recent being, “Bring Yer Wellies,” produced in 2006.
